Aim
To provide mentoring to young people living in poverty by supporting them with building resilience and educating them on opportunities
I grew up living on the poverty line, my family were heavily affected by the recession and then became homeless. I know first-hand how it feels to be a young person worrying about money and feeling helpless and confused. We want to provide help and support to young people dealing with these same issues, upskilling and educating them as well as giving them a safe space to explore how they feel. My team and I work across Essex providing support to children and families through mentoring, coaching, and group work. We want to be able to continue providing high quality early help as soon as it is needed and without delay. We are deeply committed to our mission of “no child left behind” and need your help to make that happen.
